Love is all around ~

No need to waste it, you can have the town why don't you take it
You're gonna make it after all!


God love Mary Tyler Moore. Great show, great woman, great song. What a trip. Had an amazing weekend, we had two days off together and finally got to settle in a little bit. First we took a drive to Pensacola, and did some shopping. A little retail therapy never hurt anyone. :-) It's been a long time since I lived near a NY and Co and had reason to frequent it. AMAZing pants, can I just say? The fact they run a size too big doesn't hurt either! Adam's a huge fan and dragged me in, love him. I stocked up, updated some staples I already had. Always open to business professional dressing tips! We love Ross too.

Speaking of Ross. Between there and WalMart we've dressed all the windows in the house, and most of the other decor needs as well. Barstools, bath rugs, etc. What fun! So the couple days off really gave us a chance to get settled. Of course we also had time to get a GRILL (apparently the essential man accessory to a house) which I don't oppose at all considering I came home tonight to a grilled sirloin steak dinner! And making sure we take a little time each day off to do something fun is keeping things in perspective. Whether it's drinks on the harbour or oysters on the beach, we make sure we get out and enjoy our surroundings as well. And they are lush! Only major purchase left is a new mattress for the guest bed and we're set. So when are YOU coming to visit?

Work update: Training is set for March 14 - April 8 in Kenner, LA (essentially New Orleans). Will be in Houston for Adam's award's banquet March 25-27 so we're excited to have a mini-vacation and see some friends as well.

Ciao for now,
MC
